IDEAL Mic For Stringed Instruments!

You'll be astounded at the wide range of applications for the M 160! Long regarded by audio professionals as one of the top choices for capturing the sound of a wide variety of acoustic stringed instruments (everything from violins and violas to acoustic guitars and zithers), the M 160 also delivers impressive results with typically hard-to-mic acoustic instruments in general. It can treat a blaring sax or a cracking hi-hat with the same skill and ease! Small, black, and chromium-plated to prevent glare, the M 160 is also ideal for television and film studios where discretion is important.

The M 160 is a dynamic microphone that, unlike other ribbon mics, has two ribbons! These ribbons, each of which is only 0.002 of a millimeter thick, are arranged one above the other just half a millimeter apart. Beyerdynamic's masterful technical design and production performance has produced a system that is sonically clear and well defined.

Beyerdynamic M160 Ribbon Microphone Features at a Glance:
  • Double ribbon design
  • Hypercardioid pattern to reject off-axis sounds
  • Excellent stringed instrument microphone
  • Black and chromium plated to prevent glare from broadcast lighting
  • Includes case and mic clip
